''A powerful, beautiful book. Its fierce love - of the land, the ocean, the elders and the ancestors - warms the heart and moves the spirit.'' - Alice Walker, author of The Color PurplePart memoir, part manifesto, Chamorro climate activist Julian Aguon''s No Country for Eight-Spot Butterflies is a coming-of-age story and a call for justice-for everyone, but in particular, for Indigenous peoples.Aguon beautifully weaves together stories from his childhood in the villages of Guam with searing political commentary about matters ranging from nuclear weapons to global warming.

''A fascinating and well-researched biography of a fearless woman, it combines history, adventure and romance. I loved it.'' - Lady Antonia FraserLady Dorothy ‘Dolly’ Mills was a trailblazer, whose larger-than-life personality led her to extraordinary adventures. Born in 1889 into the Walpole family, who were eminent in political and literary spheres, Dolly defied the constraints of her upper-class upbringing by marrying a poor army captain, prompting her disinheritance.From becoming the first English woman in Timbuktu she forged a reputation as one of the most renowned explorers in West Africa and beyond, travelling deep into Venezuela and the Middle East – territories often considered the preserve of men – breaking the mould and challenging her background and the expectations of her gender.Dolly wrote acclaimed travel books, documenting remote places and peoples, capturing history in the making. By the 1930s, she was the best-known female explorer, appearing on platforms and in books alongside prominent men. She was elected as an early female Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society and was a strong advocate for women in the field, leaving a bequest for women explorers on her death in 1959.A feminist with unorthodox views which ultimately cost her her marriage, Dolly also wrote ...

Krvavý poledník - Cormac McCarthy - audiokniha
Audiokniha: Cormac McCarthy vydal svůj pátý román, Krvavý poledník aneb Večerní červánky na západe, v roce 1985, a přestože byly kritické recenze víceméně příznivé, většinu hodnotitelů zarazila nebývalá míra násilí a pozoruhodná absence morálních zásad. Z komerčního hlediska nebyla kniha příliš úspěšná a trvalo několik dalších let, než byla čtenáři opravdu doceněna. Dnes je už pravidelně ražena mezi nejdůležitější americké romány dvacátého století. Dej se odehrává v letech 1849-1850 na americko-mexickém pomezí, kde Glantonova tlupa nájemných zabijáku loví pro mexickou vládu indiánské skalpy. V tlupě se objevuje mnoho historicky doložených postav, ale též smyšlený a bezejmenný šestnáctiletý kluk, protagonista celého příběhu. Nade všemi se však tyčí tajuplný soudce Holden, jenž právem aspiruje na nejzlověstnější postavu americké literatury vůbec. Krvavý poledník je syrovou výpravou do historického mezidobí, které na Západe zavládlo po americko-mexické válce a kdy platil pouze zákon silnějšího, zákon rychlejší ruky a zákon většího kalibru. V nachově masitých barvách, za libozvučného křupání chrupavek a s nasládlou pachutí krve se zde v celé své grotesknosti vyjevuje pravá podstata lidství – ovládá nás krutost, násilí, válka. CORMAC McCARTHY se narodil roku 1933 v Providence ve státě Rhode Island. Navštevoval University of Tennessee, během studií začal psát a publikovat a univerzitu nedokončil. ...

The Road - Cormac McCarthy
The story of a nameless father and son trying to survive with their humanity intact in a postapocalyptic wasteland where Earth’s natural resources have been diminished, and some survivors are left to raise others for meat, The Road is one of Cormac McCarthy’s bleakest and most prescient novels. Dedicated to his son, John Francis McCarthy, McCarthy’s The Road is one of his most personal novels.Ranked 17th on The Guardian’s 100 Best Novels of the 21st century, it was the recipient of the Pulitzer Prize for literature, and the James Tait Black Memorial Award, the Believer Award, and it was nominated for the National Book Critics Circle Award. This first official graphic novel adaptation of McCarthy’s work is illustrated by acclaimed French cartoonist Manu Larcenet, who ably transforms the world depicted by McCarthy’s spare and brutal prose into stark ink drawings that add an additional layer to this haunting tale of family love and human perseverance. Cormac McCarthy personally approved the making of this book before his death, and the adaptation bears the approval of the McCarthy estate.

By Cormac McCarthy, the author of the critically acclaimed Border Trilogy, Child of God is a taut, chilling novel that plumbs the depths of human degradation. Lester Ballard, a violent, solitary and introverted young backwoodsman dispossessed on his ancestral land, is released from jail and allowed to haunt the hill country of East Tennessee, preying on the population with his strange lusts. McCarthy transforms commonplace brushes with humanity - in homesteads, stores and in the woods - into stunning scenes of the comic and the grotesque, and as the story hurtles toward its unforgettable conclusion, depicts the most sordid aspects of life with dignity, humour, and characteristic lyrical brilliance.

Nothing moves in the ravaged landscape save the ash on the wind. It is cold enough to crack stones, and when the snow falls it is gray. The sky is dark. Their destination is the coast, although they don''t know what, if anything, awaits them there. They have nothing; just a pistol to defend themselves against the lawless bands that stalk the road, the clothes they are wearing, a cart of scavenged food—and each other.The Road is the profoundly moving story of a journey. It boldly imagines a future in which no hope remains, but in which the father and his son, "each the other''s world entire," are sustained by love. Awesome in the totality of its vision, it is an unflinching meditation on the worst and the best that we are capable of: ultimate ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Konzultant - Cormac McCarthy
Nedlouho před svou svatbou se Konzultant, uznávaný právník, rozhodne vstoupit do riskantní oblasti obchodu s drogami na drsné texasko-mexické hranici - a doufá, že následkům tohoto rozhodnutí dokáže uniknout. Je pevně přesvědčen, že až mnohamilionový obchod s kokainem proběhne, vše se vrátí do starých kolejí a on se zase navrátí ke svému starému životu po boku milované snoubenky. Namísto toho se však ocitne uprostřed brutální a smrtelně nebezpečné hry, která může zničit všechno, co má rád, a všechny, jež kdy miloval. Cormac McCarthy se i ve svém posledním díle předvádí ve vrcholné formě, i když Konzultant není román, nýbrž "jen" scénář k filmu, který letos natočil hvězdný režisér Ridley Scott s neméně hvězdnými obsazením: v hlavních rolích se tu objeví Brad Pitt, Michael Fassbender, Penélope Cruz, Cameron Diaz a Javier Bardem. Českou premiéru měl film 28. listopadu.

Blood Meridian - Cormac McCarthy
The wrath of God lies sleeping. It was hid a million years before men were and only men have power to wake it. Hell aint half full.Set in the anarchic world opened up by America's westward expansion, Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy is an epic and potent account of the barbarous violence that man visits upon man. Through the hostile landscape of the Texas-Mexico border wanders the Kid, a fourteen year-old Tennessean who is quickly swept up in the relentless tide of blood. But the apparent chaos is not without its order: while Americans hunt Indians - collecting scalps as their bloody trophies - they too are stalked as prey.Since its first publication in 1985, Blood Meridian has been read as both a brilliant subversion of the Western novel and a blazing example of that form. Powerful, mesmerizing and savagely beautiful, it is established as one of the most important works in American fiction of the last century. Part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the best of modern literature.

Suttree - Cormac McCarthy
McCarthyho opus magnum, román Suttree, je situován do tennesseeského Knoxvillu 50. let dvacátého století. Jeho hrdinou je Cornelius Suttree, mladík v Kristových letech, jenž sešel z pravé životní cesty jako kdysi Dante a nyní v černé komedii hledá sám sebe i vlastní spásu. Na živobytí si vydělává rybařením na řece Tennessee a protlouká se knoxvillským peklem plným odpadlíků, vyděděnců a zatracenců - bez spolehlivého průvodce, zato s mnoha svéráznými souputníky. Autobiografické dílo, na němž McCarthy pracoval více než dvě desetiletí, se vyznačuje mnohovrstevnatým vyprávěním, jazykovou invencí, myšlenkovou hloubkou a v neposlední řadě netypickým svébytným humorem. Suttree završuje rané tenneeseeské období autorovy tvorby a spolu s Krvavým poledníkem (1985) a Cestou (2006) představuje její naprostý vrchol.

Pasažér - Cormac McCarthy
Po dlouhých šestnácti letech, jež uplynuly od vydání světového bestselleru Cesta, nedávno zesnulého klasika americké literatury Cormac McCarthyho, vychází nový román Pasažér. Odehrává se v roce 1980 a sleduje osudy záchranáře Bobbyho Westerna, který se z člunu pobřežní hlídky vrhá k potopenému vraku letadla. V něm nachází těla devíti lidí, stále ještě připoutaných ke svým sedadlům. Chybí pilotova taška, černá skříňka a hlavně desátý pasažér. Jako někteří dřívější hrdinové McCarthyho románů se i Bobby Western stává nechtěným svědkem událostí, které se pro něj nakonec ukážou hrozbou. McCarthyho román Pasažér v sobě pozoruhodným způsobem propojuje meditaci nad mravností, vědou a dědičným hříchem s prvky thrilleru, a činí tak s příznačně rafinovaným, oslňujícím stylem, jenž autorovi vysloužil reputaci jednoho z největších současných amerických prozaiků.

One of the best social observers in American fiction. --John Freeman, Literary Hub Mr. Carroll's world is a little vicious, slippery in its sexuality . . . strangely reminiscent of the hootier, hard-candy end of the Tennessee Williams spectrum. It is flat-out odd, fun, and seeming true. --Padgett Powell When Cuban fishermen first spotted the Key West lighthouse floating in Florida waters, they called her Stella Maris, Star of the Sea. It's a beacon that draws people from everywhere seeking the end-of-the-line bohemian oasis that can still be found amidst the condo share towers, chain stores, and Redneck Riviera clientele. And it's a mecca for gay men and the women who love them. Sue Kaufman Prize- winning author Michael Carroll knows the territory intimately.

Vlak Sunset Limited - Cormac McCarthy
"Román v divadelní formě" poněkud vybočuje z celku McCarthyho díla: nejen tím, že vznikl původně jako divadelní hra (jež se v roce 2006 hrála s úspěchem na Broadwayi a v Chicagu), ale také přísnou jednotou místa a času, strohým jazykem a na kost oholenými dialogy. Setkáváme se v něm jen se dvěma postavami, označenými jako "Černý" a "Bílý", jež spolu vedou dlouhý rozhovor v zašlém newyorském bytě - a neřeší přitom nic menšího než otázku po smyslu života. "Bílý", nihilisticky založený profesor humanitních věd, je pevně rozhodnutý spáchat sebevraždu, "Černý", bývalý kriminálník, jenž díky kdysi nalezené víře v Boha změnil svůj život od základu, se mu jeho úmysl pokouší rozmluvit. Zdánlivě jednoduchý půdorys díla se ovšem v brilantním McCarthyho podání komplikuje a zpočátku přehledná, jednoznačně rozvržená pře obou mužů se postupně mění v rafinovanou disputaci nabitou symbolickými významy, v níž jako by se střetával Tomáš Akvinský se Samuelem Beckettem.

Města na planině - Cormac McCarthy
Města na planině (1998) tvoří závěrečný díl volné románové trilogie zasazené na americko-mexické pomezí. V roce 1952 se na ranči v Novém Mexiku, na pláních nedaleko nechvalně proslulých, hříšných a násilných měst El Pasa a Juárezu, sejdou dva hrdinové předešlých dílů: John Grady Cole ze Všech krásných koní a Billy Parham z Hranice. Prvnímu je teď devatenáct a umí to s koňmi jako málokdo, druhému je osmadvacet, ale kdo ho nezná, hádal by mu o dvacet víc. Oba mají za sebou drsné životní zkušenosti, které je připravily o iluze, ale nikoli o ideály odvahy, cti a ryzí lidské sounáležitosti. Leč všechno kolem se mění, nastupuje nová, moderní doba. A jejich svět - svět kovbojů a honáků dobytka - spěje k zániku. Vše, co důvěrně znali, neodvratně mizí, stejně jako z kdysi úrodné, nyní suchem umírající krajiny zmizela celá pokolení dřívějších obyvatel. Zbývají jen příběhy, které snad vítr nerozfouká jako prach. Mezi nimi i ten o kovbojovi, který se v Juárezu zamiloval do mladičké prostitutky Magdaleny. Nebo ten o poutníkovi, jemuž se na pradávném obětišti zdál zvláštní sen. McCarthyho román lze číst jako existenciální western, kovbojskou pastorálu nebo temnou variaci na klasické téma osudové lásky.

How Cormac Works - Bill Hardwig
Throughout a career that spanned six decades, Cormac McCarthy produced twelve novels that, while often quite different from one another, show a consistent commitment to formal experimentation motivated by a love of language and the possibilities therein. While it is McCarthy's grim depiction of violence and his texts' complex philosophical perspectives that receive the most attention from scholars, readers who admire the author's work are often drawn to it initially, as Bill Hardwig was, at the level of language, attracted by the breathtakingly original way McCarthy strings together words and paints images in the minds of readers. In How Cormac Works, Hardwig suggests that McCarthy's defining attribute as an author falls not in the realm of psychology, philosophy, or history but in his experimentation with language—in the style that gives his books their atmosphere, mood, and tone. Hardwig's analysis foregrounds the ways in which McCarthy utilizes and manipulates language, how he uses it to simultaneously create and withhold meaning, draw clear images, and resist this clarity. How Cormac Works focuses less on the what—what McCarthy writes or what the characters say—and more on the how—how McCarthy structures his fiction and how that structure contributes to his literary style and meaning.
